Zim v Windies | T20 World Cup | Super Eights | February 23, 2026

That average is bloating with each wicketless game and that's just in T20's. ODI cricket he's even worse.

Anybody in the know have any insight if Matty Schonken will return after his time at Uni?

Do we care? Hr will be useless like Myers and the rest who take that critical cricket development time out of their lives.

Yea I care..
We have no spinners coming through who could be selected as a genuine test match weapon. Schonken showed in that world cup that he had the goods to develop into something very very handy, and he had a good head on his shoulders

Yeah, Curran most likely won't play a game but he should.. ideally ahead of Musekiwa. I think Ngarava must play against the WI, may be ahead of Cremer. I'll stick with Wellington.

Munyonga, as rightly mentioned by Sloandog, has turned heads with his fielding. There are viral clips of his catch going around... and people talking about the fielding standards set by Zimbabwe, here in India.

Zimbabwe have lit up this tournament with their performances!

Zimbabwe have nothing to lose from here, they need to believe if they can beat Australia and SL then surely they can beat WI too! Nothing to lose.. bring it on!

Had an old account with a few hundred posts, but somehow lost it. The moderating on this forum leaves a lot to be desired.
Anyhow, good to see the lads going hard. Marumani has been immense.
Myers, munyonga and musekiwa are likely going to be exposed at this level, although in fairness to Tony he's had a couple of big moments. Evans is good enough to bat 7.

Burl must come in at number 3 even if an early wicket falls and Burl must be given a couple overs after the power play. He took two very crucial wickets against Australia and Sri Lanka ( Maxwell and Kusal Mendis ) and he can do that against West Indies too.

[lobsang]

The moment of truth is upon us, a win here will definitely give a great chance for Zimbabwe and the fans to be in a position where they have never been. South Africa are known as choker and anything is possible if they pull a rabbit out of the hat and beat West Indies.

Here we go. Bowling first! Wellington misses out for Richard. Probably a good decision, but I mean Welly adds more than Musekiwa.

Will be watching Ngarava closely in his run up. Not sure if hes 100%. Hamstrings can be tricky

Good option to bowl first. I think the team will bowl first in every game if they have the option in super 8
